Dr. Ross Henderson, a vet at Fox Hollow Animal Hospital in Colorado, was about to perform surgery when he notices one of the dogs is nervous. He uses his other skills of guitar playing and serenading to soothe the puppies nerves.

Ruby, a sweet fluffy puppy, was scheduled for surgery, but her nerves were getting the best of her. So the compassionate vet decides to help her relax. He does not use a sedative but his soothing voice. He climbs in her kennel and cuddles up with her. She lays between his legs and gently rests her head on one of his legs.

The vet strums his guitar and starts to sing “I can’t help falling in love with you…” The sweet moment was caught on video for all to see. The singing seems to be working, because Ruby lays still soaking up the extra attention. Luckily, Dr. Ross has a nice sounding voice.
